Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Great Conde: A Life of Louis II De Bourbon, Prince of Condé I take this opportunity of expressing my most sincere thanks to all who have helped me in my work. For the practical kindness and courtesy shown by M. Macon, Curator of Chantilly, and guardian of its priceless archives, I cannot be too grateful. To M. Omont, of the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, I owe a like acknowledgment for his unfailing and ready help during my study of the manuscripts under his charge. In the parts of the work relating to military matters, I have had invaluable assistance from Major-General Sir Alexander Godley, K.C.M.G.; while the passages dealing with contemporary history have been kindly read and criticised by Mr. Geoffrey Headlam, of Eton College. Among many who have given me the benefit of advice and sympathy, I must first mention my father, Lord Kilbracken. I am also deeply indebted to Lady Burghclere, whose studies on the history of the seventeenth century are well known; to The Hon. Mrs. Walter James; to Miss Katharine Mathew; to my aunt, Miss Godley; and to my brother-in-law, Mr. John Coleridge. With regard to information from manuscript sources, I have done my best to ascertain which of the many extracts in this book are now published for the first time, and to distinguish them accordingly; but if, in any case, it is shown that I have made the claim unjustly, I hereby apologise beforehand.
